Your tent is your tiny home away from home

Lightweight Equipment and Clothing for Camping Adventures

By Kenny Stocker

From summer hikes to winter camps, this guide helps you choose lightweight clothing and gear for comfort, performance and packability.

Shelter is a fundamental need but we don't like to be pinned down. We all like to get out and explore a bit, so there are times when we have to take our shelter with us.

The humble tent has ticked the boxes for years, providing us shelter with portability. It fulfils a very practical function but a tent is more than a shelter; it's a comfortable base for sharing outdoor adventures.

For some a shelter isn't a even a tent. In the quest for ultimate portability a lightweight tarp and bivvy bag can suffice.

It might go on your back, it might go in your car; but when you get to where you are going it is your home away from home.

Our design philosophy: liveable space for all

Our design philosophy is bound to designing liveable spaces no matter the size of the shelter. The concept of liveable space in modern tent design refers to the creation of tents that are not only functional as shelter but also comfortable and spacious. This concept goes beyond the basic need for protection and focuses on enhancing the overall camping experience.

Unlike the two main theories of physics that have not yet been successfully linked together, we have a single unifying approach that scales from the very smallest to the very biggest. We design tiny homes that function as personal liveable spaces to shared, communal liveable spaces.

Whatever your plans for camping adventures we have a tiny home for you. We have kit for everything from lightweight overnighters to month long base camps in the greater ranges. Whatever your plans we have everything you need to help you go nice places do good things.
